Thanks Steve, any chance of asking Jones about Eight Belles and Sadler about Exhale (who just worked for the first time in a long time)?

Ron Charles just now on ATR.. Racing a go Saturday unless something unforeseen occurs. Working on track through the night, scraping 1.5" off the top. Turf course "good", and has handled the rain very well...
Sunday-Monday almost certainly cancelled..

Here's what I don't get.....if the surface is unsafe for racing yesterday and today.....and supposedly for Sunday and Monday......how can it be considered safe on Saturday? Or, is it only safe it's a big day for the owner?
This sounds like an accident waiting to happen and a very poor decision.

Hey, what do I know, I'm sure the track is fine for tomorrow and everyone is just thrilled they are running. I mean, honestly, cancelling the Sunshine Millions is like cancelling the Fourth of July.

Supposedly they are going to get another 2 inches of rain Saturday night so Sunday is pretty much out. I really question what kind of surface they will be left with after scraping 2 inches of slop off the top. Lets hope it safe.
I don't even know where to begin handicapping it. Scraping the cushion off the cushion track leaves what? Are the 25k claimers going to be running 6F in 1:06 flat?

The handle comparison to last year's Sunshine Millions card at Santa Anita could be interesting.
